Public Elementary Schools Deploy Leftists’ Favorite DEI Terms — And Refuse To Define Them

The left's strategy is to redefine words that have clear definitions while being intentionally vague about terms like 'marginalized groups.'

Woke medicine KILLS: 10 examples of how DEI is creating the next public health crisis



The left’s woke agenda is chock-full of phony public health crises – racism, climate change, inaccessible “gender-affirming care.”

But there’s a real public health crisis on the horizon, and it goes by the name of diversity, equity, and inclusion.

DEI, which Glenn Beck calls “a sick cancer,” has “infiltrated our medical schools, our doctors, and our health care,” and the results will be nothing short of devastating.

“Do No Harm” – an organization founded on the principle of “protecting health care from the disastrous consequences of identity politics” – has revealed that “23 of America's top 25 medical schools now have anti-racism instruction as the core part of their curriculum.” And that’s just the tip of the iceberg.

Here are ten examples (although there are countless more) of how DEI is a festering blight on the medical field:

1. First-year medical students at UCLA were required to attend a lecture as part of their “mandatory course on structural racism.” The guest speaker who delivered the speech prayed to “Mama Earth” while she had students “get on their hands and knees” before “she led the students in chanting ‘free, free Palestine,”’ according to the Washington Free Beacon.

2. In February of this year, a man named Dante King – “a guest faculty member of the University of California at San Francisco School of Medicine” – “delivered a lecture titled, ‘Diagnosing Whiteness and Anti-Blackness: White Psychopathology, Collective Psychosis, and Trauma in America.”’ Here’s just one quote from King’s lecture:

The historical record has well documented white people's narcissistic personality disorder and insecurities, along with their internalized distortions, fear, and perversions about African people. In their relationship with the black race, whites are psychopaths, and their behavior represents an underlying biologically transmitted proclivity with roots deep in their evolutionary history. How many of you could see the proclivity that evolved deep within the evolutionary history of whiteness by show of hands? ... Some people are sitting here, "Oh no I don't want to raise my hand" – that's called denial.

3. “Top-ranked Harvard Medical School has activist courses like ‘Social Change and the Practice of Medicine,’” in which “they’re teaching aspiring doctors how to be important advocates for social change.”

4. At George Washington University School of Medicine, students enroll in courses titled:

  • “‘How to Talk Race, Power, and Privilege in Classroom and Clinical Settings”
  • “Moving Beyond Bystanding … to Disrupting Racism”
  • “Beyond the Binary: Navigating Pregnancy and Affirming Care for People with Diverse Gender Identities”
  • “Confronting U.S. History: We Must End Racism to End Health Disparities”

5. At the Indiana University School of Medicine, “first-year students in basic anatomy classes are taught that gender is a social construct, that sex and gender fall along a continuum rather than being a binary,” and that “man and woman gender types [are] oversimplifications.”

6. Upstate Medical University in Syracuse, New York, established a “diversity task force” that produced a lengthy report demanding that “health care professionals explicitly acknowledge that race and racism are the root of all these health disparities” and that students be trained in “bystander intervention for bias.”

7. Medical students at the University of Minnesota are required to take an oath pledging to “honor all indigenous ways of healing that have been historically marginalized by Western medicine” and fight “white supremacy, colonialism, [and] the gender binary.”

8. In 2022, the president of the American Association of Medical Colleges, David J. Skorton, said: “We believe this topic [diversity, equity, and inclusion] deserves just as much attention from learners and educators at every stage of their careers as the latest scientific breakthroughs.” The AAMC, which “forms the accrediting body for U.S. medical schools in the U.S.,” also released a DEI competencies report in 2022 making clear that the institution’s “unquestioning devotion to DEI” would “govern admission standards in medical schools.” The organization even went as far as “[discouraging] schools from using the MCAT admissions test as a way to select medical students,” leading to “dozens of schools [making] the MCAT optional.”

9. The University of Pennsylvania, an Ivy League school, “[guarantees] admission, with no MCAT required, for black students who meet GPA and internship requirements.” These students also “get a 50% discount on tuition.”

10. The majority of medical school applications now “have DEI questions,” including questions regarding “dedication to DEI” and “DEI-related activism,” as part of the screening process. Further, the MCAT itself has been altered to “create more equity in admissions.” “One-quarter of the questions are now about social issues and psychology.” Even the United States Medical Licensure Examination, which allows medical school graduates to practice medicine, has been adapted to be “a pass/fail exam.”

“The one-step exam is usually the biggest decider in selecting applicants for residency in programs, but now numbered scores are not allowed because lower average scores are keeping minorities from getting into competitive residencies,” says Glenn.

While that concludes our ten examples, this doesn’t even begin to scratch the surface of how the malignant cancer that is DEI is infecting the medical industry.

You will not believe this is REAL footage! Welcome to Race2Dinner, where white women pay $500 to be told how racist they are



Race2Dinner is an televised event run by woke radicals Regina Jackson and Saira Rao. It’s an experience that’s supposed to “open minds, create dialogue and reveal truths” for white women who don’t understand their white privilege.

And these white women pay $500 to attend this event.

We’re all for opening minds, having authentic dialogue, and shining light on the truth, but that’s not at all what Race2Dinner is about.

Dave Rubin plays a clip from one episode that clearly sheds light on the truth of this reality show.

“Margaret, you didn’t say yours ... your racist thing that you’ve done,” Rao fires at a woman in the group.

“Well, I also work in environmental engineering,” where there are “minimal people of color,” answered Margaret.

“I can say a racist thing you’ve done because it just happened,” retorted Rao. “When you just talked to me the way you just did; this is how white women talk to us all the time — these are microaggressions.”

“I say the exact same thing to my white girlfriend,” responded Margaret, clearly confused about her transgression.

“The way you just spoke to me was straight-up white supremacy,” spat Rao, adding that Margaret “answered with racism.”

Yes, that’s a real conversation.

“These people are so extraordinarily pathetic,” laughs Dave.

Rao is “just using this ideology to kind of bully this woman and to talk to her in a way that's just, you know, feeding her own narcissism,” adds Melissa Chen.

“The goal is to bully you and to hound you and to create a social environment where it feels like there's a pressure for you to want to confess, and then the second you start to confess, the next stage is to say that your confession is not sincere enough,” says James Lindsay.

Ibram Kendi's 'antiracism' center accused of perpetuating systemic injustice through 'employment violence'



Ibram X. Kendi, famous for his teachings on "antiracism," is accused of perpetuating systemic injustices through "employment violence."

Last week, the Center for Antiracist Research at Boston University — an organization Kendi founded and directs — laid off between 20 to 30 employees, according to the Boston Globe, which is at least half of the center's staff.

Now, former leaders who worked in the center are speaking out about its behind-the-scenes problems.

Boston University associate professor Dr. Phillipe Copeland, for example, questioned how the "mass layoffs" adhere to Kendi's "antiracist" framework.

"This act of employment violence and trauma is not just about individual leaders. It's about the cultures and systems that allow it to occur. And too often rewards it," Copeland wrote on Facebook.

"Antiracism is not a branding exercise, PR campaign or path to self-promotion. It is a life and death matter," he added. "Those of us who believe in real antiracism need to demand more from our colleges and universities. Institutions preaching 'antiracism' need to actually practice it."

Boston University associate professor Dr. Spencer Piston, moreover, suggested in an interview with the Boston Globe that Kendi abused power that he had amassed.

"There are a number of ways it got to this point; it started very early on when the university decided to create a center that rested in the hands of one human being, an individual given millions of dollars and so much authority," Piston told the newspaper.

That sentiment was echoed by Boston University associate professor Dr. Saida Grundy, who left the center after working there for less than a year. She described the center as "exploitative."

"It became very clear after I started that this was exploitative and other faculty experienced the same and worse," Grundy told the Boston Globe.

The Center for Antiracist Research was founded in 2020. Its mission is "to create novel and practical ways to understand, explain, and solve seemingly intractable problems of racial inequity and injustice." The center has received tremendous (i.e., lucrative) donor support, including a $10 million donation from Twitter co-founder Jack Dorsey.

Kendi did not return a request for comment from the Globe.

Video: Song about murdering white farmers sung in stadium packed with South African Marxists



South Africa's Marxist-Leninist political party, the Economic Freedom Fighters, celebrated its 10th anniversary over the weekend.

After the radical group's demagogic leader emphasized, "We are with President Putin. ... We are Putin, and Putin is us, and ... we are not with the USA," Julius Malema led nearly 100,000 of his followers in singing the anti-white hate song, "Dubul' ibhunu," known as "Shoot to kill, kill the Boer, kill the farmer."

Video of the bloodthirsty chant at the FNB Stadium, complete with gun sounds, has gone viral, prompting outrage and concern from the world's richest man, South African Twitter CEO Elon Musk, who wrote, "They are openly pushing for genocide of white people in South Africa."

The controversial song is about gunning down Boers, the white descendants of the Dutch-speaking Free Burghers who settled South Africa between the 17th and 19th centuries. "Boer" means "farmer" in both Dutch and Afrikaans.

Judge Colin Lamont of the South Gauteng High Court barred Malema from singing the song in 2011, noting it undermined Afrikaners' dignity, reported the Mail and Guardian.

Although the Western press has largely downplayed the phenomenon, in recent years, Afrikaners appear to have been targeted in an escalating series of murders, rapes, and other attacks.

The Guardian reported that in the wake of the ruling, the African National Congress promised to stop singing the hate song.

Malema, who had been expelled from the ANC and seeks to seize farmland without compensating victims, continued to sing the song but purportedly changed "Shoot the Boer" to "Kiss the Boer."

However, when Malema publicly slipped up last year, AfriForum, a large advocacy group for Afrikaners, took the matter to the Equality Court in Johannesburg.

South Africa's Independent Online reported that the court ruled the song was neither hate speech nor incitement, claiming "liberation songs should not be interpreted literally."

Despite the court's assessment, Malema appeared quite literal when he told BBC's "Hardtalk" program last July, "When the unled revolution comes ... the first target is going to be white people," and when he stated in 2016, "White minorities be warned. We will take our land. It doesn't matter how. It's coming, unavoidable. The land will be taken by whatever means necessary."

Ernst Roets, chief executive for strategy and international relations at AfriForum, said Judge Edwin Molahlehi's ruling "proved how the political order in South Africa is becoming radicalised, especially against minorities. A political order where the incitement and romanticisation of violence against minorities is sanctioned by the judiciary is not a free, democratic order, but an oppressive order."

AfriForum has appealed the judgment, and the Supreme Court of Appeal is set to hear the case later this year.

Roets said of the EFF chant over the weekend, "The question is whether the singing of the song 'Kill the boer, kill the farmer' is indeed hate speech. Given the fact that the case is still sub judice and in the process of going to court, Malema has no right to sing the song."

John Steenhuisen, leader of the Democratic Alliance — which serves as official opposition to the ruling African National Congress — indicated his party would file charges at the U.N. Human Rights Council after Malema's recent stunt.

"The DA recently forced the South African government to live up to its international responsibility to comply with warrants issued by the International Criminal Court," said Steenhuisen. "We will now do the same to force it to act against Malema."

Steenhuisen suggested Malema has violated at least three U.N. charters, including Article 3 of the Convention on the Prevention and Punishment of the Crime of Genocide, which makes it a punishable offense to direct and publicly incite people to commit mass murder on the basis of their identity, reported the Independent Online.

The DA leader said on Twitter, "Julius Malema has resurrected the demon of hatred, division and ethnic violence in South Africa. He is determined to ignite the civil war our country narrowly averted in the 1990s. The DA will not look away. We are confronting this bloodthirsty tyrant head-on."

Helen Zille, former chairperson of the Federal Council of the DA and former premier of the Western Cape, wrote, "Malema calls for the murder of citizens based on race. We all know what he means by boer/farmer. If a white leader called for the shooting of black ppl, s/he would, rightly, be in jail. But SA is the land of double standards."

Whereas some have taken issue with a crowd of over 90,000 making gun sounds and calling for the Boer to be killed, EFF chairman Dali Mpofu called the celebration "[t]ear-jerking stuff!"

That Mpofu would be moved by the event is unsurprising given how the EFF's founding manifesto reads like a work of Western "antiracist" agitprop.

The manifesto states, "The EFF is a radical, leftist, anti-capitalist and anti-imperialist movement with an internationalist outlook anchored by popular grassroots formations and struggles. ... The EFF draws inspiration from the gallant fight those who came before us have mounted, generation after generation, against the superior firepower of the colonists. The EFF intend to elevate this resistance to a decisive victory to vindicate the justness of the cause of liberation wars and to pay tribute to all those who perished fighting for the liberation of the African people."

Despite opposing European colonizers and imperialists, the EFF "draws inspiration" from European political philosophies.
